9. "the black cat" is told in the internal first-person point of view. no other character's voice is present, even in the form of reported dialogue. what effect does this have on the mood and tone of the story and how you experience it as a reader?

After reading Edgar Allan Poe's short story "The Black Cat" I found it a subjective and my perception drove through the emotion of the writer. It is subjective in the sense that, the writer has poured his point of view, experience and context.

This makes the story open to everyone. We can interpret it on our own way and enjoy the story. Our understandings and perception of plot and character is drove on the basis of the narrator and his reported dialogues.
